Lundeström vs Comtois vs Cozens

[loppantorkel]

League at the bottom. Not a significant move, but I'm dropping one and I see little potential in the others being kept beyond this season, so it's more or less a question who will produce most during the latter half of the season, or gain more value.

Lundestrom has been decent, while unexciting, producing well over Comtois and Cozens over the first half. He has dropped off somewhat.
Comtois has come back from injury, he has underperformed so far, but has a higher ceiling given his more physical play style.
Cozens is the most talented, but isn't there yet productionwise and doesn't provide any peripherals beyond FOW. He could be tradebait at the end of the season if he starts producing.

I'm in a good position to contend. Does anyone have an inkling where these players are trending this season? Anyone like or dislike what they're seeing?

I'll try to rep.

I keep Cozens in any format

Well Comtois is the odd man out, he's just not looking too good at the moment and I can't see a major improvement in the second half. So, it comes down to Lunderstrom and Cozens and it's pretty even, it really depends on what stats you need help with and go with the guy who can help address weakeness. For example, Cozens his producing on the PP, Lunderstrom is not seeing PP time. As a last point, if I was to pick one of these guys to put together a better second half, my choice would be Cozens and that relates directly to better upside. Hope this helps.

Very helpful. It confirms my thoughts. I had higher hopes for Comtois when he came back from injury, but the ice-time seems to vary a lot and he's in a lot of competition for it. He might turn it around eventually, but he won't play himself into a keeper this season anyway, so he's the safest drop.

As for Cozens being a keeper in any league - it very much depends on the league settings and keeper count.
